Push 1 12V or 6V external power ?

Post by elektroman » Sat Aug 13, 2016 9:12 am

Hi all.
Acquired Push few days ago and absolutely love it. However... I just noticed something thats concerning me.
On the back of my Push next to the power socket it says 6V @ 1A. However the adapter it came with is 12V @ 1.5A and this is also stated in the Push technical specifications on Abletons website.
Whats the deal? Push works perfectly with the power supply I have but whats with the 6V sign next to the power socket ??
Just want to know as I really do not want to burn it out or anything .
Thanks ahead.

The original adapter for Push 1 that I got directly from Ableton is 6V 1000ma 6W, model GPE053A-060100-Z (Golden Profits Electronics LTD). Isn't the one you have a switching mode supply?

Thanks for the reply.
I don't think this one I have here is a switching one. It is 12V output. But the Push works flawlessly with it. Unless the Push can handle a certain range of voltage variation without a drama.
I will have to search for a original adapter now.
